SAITAMA – Saitama Prefectural Police are hunting for a former employee of a security company who is believed to have stolen 360 million yen from a branch office in Misato City, reports Kyodo News (Sept. 9).

In security camera footage shot on September 4, Hiroki Ito, 28, then an employee of Asahi Security Co., is seen taking the 360 million yen in cash from a safe and placing it inside a cardboard box. He then hauls it away from the office.

Over the next two days, Ito failed to arrive at work. Another employee later noticed that the cash was missing, police said.

The company then contacted police and dismissed Ito.
